Dames Summary
Director: Ray Enright
Genres: Musical, Romance
Rating:
As the title song says, you go to those shows to see those beautiful dames--and there's dames aplenty in this 1934 Busby_Berkeley extravaganza. The wisp of a plot is motivated by one Ezra Ounce (Hugh_Herbert), a silly millionaire who spearheads a national anti-fun movement. Ounce's distant cousin Dick_Powell is a producer of musical comedies. Ounce's partner is Guy_Kibbee, whose daughter is Ruby_Keeler. Kibbee is also the "sugar daddy" of Joan_Blondell, Powell's friend and co-worker. Fill in the rest of the blanks yourself. If the plot doesn't interest you (and there's no reason why it should), sit back and enjoy the humongous production numbers based on the Warren/Dubin songs "I Only Have Eyes for You", "The Girl on the Ironing Board", and of course the title number.
